Episode Description from the Publisher

Guest for this show is Emmy-winning filmmaker Nick Davis, the creative force behind the powerful new documentary This Ordinary Thing. The film shines a light on everyday non‑Jewish individuals who made extraordinary choices during the Holocaust — risking their own lives to save Jewish strangers. Through moving testimonies, rare archival footage, and a remarkable cast of narrators, the documentary reveals how ordinary people can rise to moments of profound moral courage. Nick is here to share the stories behind the film and what he hopes audiences will carry with them after watching. This very moving documentary THIS ORDINARY THING will have a Nationwide (US/Canada) VOD Release on June 12 on Apple/ iTunes, Amazon, and all major platforms, timed to the anniversary of Anne Frank's birth. www.thisordinarything.com https://www.series-of-dreams.com/projects/thisordinarything Trailer:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qcgS6xWyA4 www.thisordinarything.com #nickdavisdocumentary #thisordinarythingfilm #Holocaustrescuers #survivortestimonies #nonJewishrescuers #moralcouragestories #AnneFrank #JewishHistory #vod Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
